Zach has landed

Zach is now officially in Iraq at his Base. His base is called Falcon. It's in southern Baghdad.

We got to talk to Zach on Skype today. Originally, I was thinking, oh, the phone calls and occasional email will be okay. We'll save money that way and it's really not that big of a deal. I was completely wrong! It was so fantastic to see Zach talk and smile. The kids were ecstactic. Cai kept staring at our moniter (which a giant flat screen tv) in wonder and Lleida kept jumping up and down and saying, "Hi Dad! I see you, I see me!"

Obviously, a good time was had by all, and best of all, we got to say Good Night and blow kisses to Daddy before the kiddies went to bed.

About Me

Zach and I have known each other since the 6th grade but didn't have our first date until Graduation Dance our senior year. I went off to BYU and Zach went off to Basic Training but we reconnected that summer, only to have me quit writing him 2 months into his mission. Luckily, I showed up at the airport when he returned home and we were engaged 2 1/2 weeks later. We've been married since December of 2000 and have been able to adopt 2 beautiful children and are always on the lookout for our next child.
